Personalized Flip-Flops

MARABOU FUR FLIP FLOP--The first one has marabou fur on it. Take a piece of the marabou fur and lay it where it will go so you can get an idea of how much you will need for your project. Now add the adhesive to the bands of the flip flop and stick the fur on it. You will need to hold it in place for a few minutes.

RIBBON FLIP FLOP--You will need about 5 to 6 yards of ribbon. Cut the ribbon into 4 inch strips and now tie each ribbon onto the band of the flip flop. Make sure you knot each one into place so they don't fall off. Once you get all your ribbons on your project is complete.

Button Flip Flops--Glue buttons or rhinestones on the band with a heavy adhesive such as E6000. Be creative and have fun.

"In the Flip-Flop Girl, Katherine Paterson reveals a lot of insight into the inner thoughts, feelings, and wondering of a nine year old girl. The way Paterson seems to understand the mind of a child is truly amazing. For any child having a difficult time dealing with death or loss, this book would help them understand that they are not alone in their feelings. It is also very entertaining and well written. Katherine Paterson did a great job once again at dealing with a sensitive issue for children."Reviewed by:A Customer TO PURCHASE

"I'm an elementary school counselor and have really enjoyed using this book with students. They love it! It is a great springboard for helping children become more assertive, and to role play and practice the tips and 'the plan' for dealing with others who tease or torment them"Reviewed by DWLaker TO PURCHASE
